Processors for DSP: Architectures and TrendsA full-day BDTI seminarAVAILABLE ON-SITE OR ONLINE ContentsOverviewIt is becoming increasingly difficult to find microprocessor applications that don't include digital signal processing functionality—or that couldn't benefit from DSP. But typical DSP tasks make heavy demands on a processor. Recognizing these two factors, virtually every manufacturer of general-purpose microprocessors or high- performance microcontrollers has recently modified its existing architectures to provide enhanced DSP capabilities, or devised new architectures with significant DSP power. In the meantime, traditional DSP processor vendors have been aggressively advancing their own product lines with a wide variety of architectural techniques, and several upstarts have introduced unusual new DSP-oriented architectures. All this adds up to a serious challenge for system designers selecting a processor for a DSP-intensive application. In the recent past, if an application required serious signal processing, a conventional DSP processor was the obvious choice. Today there are many more options, and discerning their relative merits can be tricky. In this seminar, you'll gain insight into each of the major types of processors currently targeting DSP-intensive applications. You'll get an insider's hands-on assessment of the features, strengths, and weaknesses of the most important processors being used in DSP applications. And you'll learn how to realistically evaluate processors' DSP performance. This class is intended for engineers, engineering managers, and technical marketing professionals involved in developing or selecting processors for DSP- intensive applications. Attendees will gain a solid understanding of the major types of DSP-capable processors available and of the key attributes distinguishing these products from each other.
